Finishing
Surface finishing and protection options to meet performance, appearance and compliance requirements
From Machined Component to Finished Part
We support a broad range of finishing processes so components can be supplied in service-ready condition. Finishes are selected based on corrosion resistance, wear performance, appearance and downstream assembly requirements.
Finishing Options
Anodising
Clear and coloured anodising options for aluminium components where corrosion resistance and appearance are critical.
Hard Anodising
High-wear anodic layers for improved surface hardness on aluminium parts.
Zinc & Electroless Nickel Plating
Protective plated finishes for steel components requiring corrosion control and improved durability.
Passivation
Stainless steel passivation to improve corrosion performance while preserving dimensional integrity.
Bead Blasting
Uniform matte surfaces to improve cosmetic consistency and prepare components for coating.
Powder Coating & Paint
Durable protective and decorative coatings available in customer-specified colour systems.
Supplementary Post-Process Services
Deburring & Edge Conditioning
Controlled edge break and burr removal for safe handling and improved assembly fit.
Polishing & Cosmetic Prep
Surface preparation for visible components where visual quality is part of the specification.
Masking for Critical Features
Protection of threads, sealing faces and fit diameters during coating and plating operations.
Dimensional Re-Verification
Post-finish checks where coating thickness or process effects can influence critical dimensions.
Clean, Protected Packaging
Packaging selected to preserve finished surfaces through transport and storage.
Traceable Batch Control
Lot control and process records maintained to support quality and compliance requirements.
Our Finishing Workflow
Specification Review
Drawing notes and standards are reviewed to confirm required finish type and acceptance criteria.
Surface Preparation
Deburring, cleaning and masking completed to control finish quality and protect critical areas.
Process Application
Selected finishing process is applied under controlled conditions through approved routes.
Inspection & Verification
Visual and dimensional checks confirm coating consistency, coverage and key feature integrity.
Release & Dispatch
Finished parts are labelled, protected and dispatched with documentation as required.
Materials We Commonly Finish
Aluminium Alloys
Anodising, hard anodising and cosmetic finishing to suit marine, motorsport and industrial use.
Stainless Steels
Passivation and cosmetic finishing for corrosion resistance and clean presentation.
Mild & Alloy Steels
Protective plating and coating routes selected for service environment and lifecycle needs.
Brass & Bronze
Cleaning and finishing options for decorative and functional component applications.
Mixed-Material Assemblies
Coordinated finishing strategy to ensure compatibility across assembled parts.
Typical Finishing Applications
- Marine components requiring enhanced corrosion resistance
- Motorsport and industrial parts requiring wear-resistant hardcoat finishes
- Medical and scientific hardware requiring clean, consistent cosmetic standards
- Customer-facing products where branding and visual quality are priorities
- Assemblies needing coating protection without compromising fit interfaces
